Description of ๐ŸŽจ DANIEL SMITH Extra Fine Watercolor Paint Tube 15ml - Cobalt Blue (284600025)

DANIEL SMITH is the Innovative Manufacturer of Beautiful Watercolors for Artists Worldwide, and makes the largest range of watercolors of any manufacturer, more than 240 colors. The 240+ color collection includes the exciting PrimaTek watercolors made from minerals (like Amethyst) plus other unique colors (like Moonglow) not available elsewhere, and Luminescent Watercolors which allow artists to capture the luminescent colors that exist in nature that regular watercolors cannot capture!. This neutral, non-staining primary blue will subtly modify most pigments. Considered a "mixing pigment", its' semi-transparent nature can cast a giant reticulating shadow. An inorganic pigment, it is considered non-staining (or low-tinting) and ideal for glazing methods. Its ability to create soft edges, to lift and to mix readily makes Cobalt Blue a valuable contribution to watercolor palettes. Excellent Lightfastness, Semi-transparent, Granulating, Low staining. PB 28. Conforms to ASTM D4236, D5067.

Gorgeous Color: Makes Painting Pop!

Based on my experience, this watercolor is absolutely beautiful to work with and adds a bold pop of color to any arts and crafts project. It's perfect for adding depth and dimension to landscapes or sea-themed paintings. The only downside is that it can be a bit pricey compared to cheaper watercolor options, but the quality is definitely worth it. Overall, a great choice for any painting enthusiast looking to take their craft to the next level.

Pros
  • Vibrant shade of blue that adds depth and richness to paintings
Cons
  • Pigment may fade quicker over time compared to other cobalt watercolors

How I Lived Without

I had so much blue I thought I didn't need cobalt. Boy was I wrong. It's so beautiful, clear and bright. I'm so glad I added it.

Pros
  • Excellent lightfastness, translucent, grainy, low staining
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

One star for the seller.

Whoever the sender was, their quality control department was fired. It arrived with blue paint on the tube and cap. It was a very cold day. Explosion? Also, after cleaning I found 2 holes in the pipe which I sealed with tape. I didn't go back as I knew it would end up in the trash somewhere and it would be a waste if the beautiful color were just as bad for the environment.

Pros
  • Meets ASTM D4236, D5067
Cons
  • Available in white only
